LAND AGEN1s-

One would infer from the following
article from the FL Dorado Republi-
can ''corralling strangers" was quite a
business in that burg, and that some
one had taken an intended victim
away from the writer or one of his pals.
1t reads about like that advice one con-
| fidence man would give another:
We do not presume to know more
| about the land sellers business than
he does, but we beg permission to call
attention to the following very impor-
tant law both of common sense and
etiquette. When strangers come into
our city looking for investments it is
the proper thing to cOrrell him and in
terest him financially in the town.
When one man has secured the audi
ence of the stranger it is the duty of
the others to let him alone. In heav-
ems name, gentlemen, do not all ring
in at the same time and tell him that
you have something cheaper and better;
that his proposed purchase does not
lie in the line of future Improvement
Let No. l either make or break in his
attempt, then the rest come in. in or
der.
Such adverse and contradictory
statements made upon one subject dis
tract and disgust the would-be pur-
chaser, make him declare that he
knows nothing, can get no reliable tes-
timony and he goes away without do
ing anything. He goes away preiu-
diced against the people of the town, he
does not fail to express his sentiments
elsewhere. So when one deal is on let
the rest declare ''hands off-stand
back, "''let all things be done decent
ly and in order. Take it lone at a
time in an active business way and
do not flop down like a flock of vul-
lures On an intended victim. The
spirit of this advice is based upon
facts and is kindly meant.

DeaIb of aaIIIe Lewis.

A dispatch was received in this city
Thursday from Cannon City, Colorado,
announcing the death of Sallie Lewis.
The deceased is a sister of
John and Ike Lewis and of the wife of
T. II. Lewis of this city. She, in COM
pany with her sister Maggie and her
mother, went to Colorado some time
ago for the benefit of her health. Her
sister Maggie'S death occurred last fall
from the same dread desease, con-
sumption, which caused her death last
night. She had been very low for some
time past, and her brother John of this
city has been in Cannon City for the
past two weeks, watching by her bed
side. Her death, although not unex-
pected, was a severe shock to her rela-
tives and friends, of whom she has a
host in this city.
The mortal remains of Sallie Lewis
were laid to rest in Lower Dry Creek
cemetery last Friday. Services was
held at O'Clock at the Welsh Presby
terrain church, conducted by Rev. John
Jones, assisted by Revs. Evans, Rich
ards and Johns. The altar was draped
in mourning and decorated with flow
ers and wreaths by members of the
same class as deceased in the Sabbath
school. The pail bearers were six
young men from the class Of L. w
Lewis. The services were most inn
pressive, and the church was crowded
to its utmost capacity, which showed
that the departed one was esteemed
and loved by all who knew her.

withdraw their patronage from the

There is little doubt that Mr.. An
thongs hostile attitude toward his old
chums in the whisky business had
much to do with this meeting and
these resolutions.
Nevertheless, it is undoubtedly true
that he has as grossly exaggerated
matters in Leavenworth as he did in
Topeka in his late writeup Of the drug
store business at the latter place. II
is also beyond doubt that his associate
press reports regarding the troubles al
Leavenworth have been highly colored
extremely unfair and partizan, and
chiefly devoted to advertising his news
paper.

E. NJ. Forde, grand recorder of the
grand lodge of the 1. o. U. w. of Kan
sas, returned this morning from Wich-
tia, where he has been attending the
session of the grand lodge for the past
three days. In speaking to our re-
porter concerning Wichita he said that
the delegates to the session from all
over the state were poorly received and
substantiated his remarks by showing
the following clipping from the Wichi-
ia Journal:
The members of the A. o. U. W. of
the state who attended the grand
lodge in the city, were greatly dis
pleased and openly give vent to their
dissatisfaction for the manner in which
they were received and treated by the
home lodge. While it is customary to
receive, escort and provide the dele
gates with quarters, the latter were
left wholly to their own resources and
it cannot be wondered at when some of

a NICE pApRP

At mass meeting of citizens of
Leayenworth held on Wednesday even
ing some very strong resolutions de-
mandatory of ID. r. Anthony and his
paper were adopted. The resolutions
claim that Anthony damages the city
by misrepresentation in his position
as editor and also as agent of the as
sociated press, by statements of the
prevalence of lawlessness, and that
persons and property of our citizens
are in jeopardy from the attacks of
rioters and law breaking persons al
legged to be in control of city affairs.
Among other resolutions adopted
were the following:
Resolved, That we denounce the
course of the Leavenworth Times in
its abuse of onr city and its best inter
ests, and declare the course of that
journal and its proprietor to be dictated
by purely selfish and reyengeful mo-
tives, in utter disregard of the truth

Mr.. R. Lafferty, of Jackson town
ship, was in the city Saturday and mads
the NEWS office a pleasant call. In
discussing the bond question he said
that it was sure that jackson town
ship would give a good majority for
the bonds. The farming population
appreciate the fact that railroads will
serve to make better market for their
produce, and will increase the value of
their land all over the county. Mr..
Lafferty also expressed himself to be
favorable to the stock yard proposition,
and said that he hoped Emporia would
vote the bonds as it would offer the
farmers further inducements to vote
the NJ. K. & S. w. and the K. C. g. T.
bonds. 81 am glad to see Emporia

This settles upon the sensitive sub
cutaneous covering of the muscles and

slant and shifting pain, and aggregat-
ing as a calcareous, chalky deposit
which produces stiffness and distor-

stronger evidence to support than this,
namely, that this medicine of cOmpre-

It is to delude poor sufferer into the belief
that some W orthless Eminent viii cure rheu-

policy In the manufacture of proprietary ar
lcIesas In all other matters, and the fact that
the proprietors of Athlophoros have never

rant has not little to do with its wonderful
popularity, and the thousands of grateful
testimonials received by them show that
their policy has been wise as well as right.
Experience has amply demonstrated
that mere outward applications are worth
less. The disease has its seat in the blood,
and any remedy to be successful must deal
with the obstructive acid which poisons
and iniames it.
Athlophoros acEs on the blood, muscles
and joints directly. It takes the poison
out of the blood and carries it out of the
system; It invigorates the action of the
muscles and limbers the stiffness of the
joints. It reaches the liver and kidneys

conditions cease, it viii restore these organ

some of them:

'When learning ceases TO be uncom-

Nothing can be more perfectly alb

One great reason why people desire
to settle in Kansas is the wonderful
fertility of soil, and the ease with
which ii is titled. The many first
prizes taken on the products OF our
state at the centennial and the New
Orleans exposition, are fair evidences
of the productiveness of this farmers
paradise. kansans pride themselves
upon their many fine farms which are
adorned with grand residences and
good substantial barns. the stalls and
yards are filed with only pure-blooded
stock, and the bins of which are filled
with the golden grain from the recent
harvest. The stranger is enchanted
when he seats himself at the table of
the average Kansas farmer and par
takes of a meal such as king might
boast of; and when he is asked to sam
pie the farmers cider and MUNICH the
luscious fruits that are pressed upon
him with such great hospitality, he can
no longer restrain his feelings, but
gives vent to an exclamation of sur
prise which we imagine is something
like this: Has this state accom-
plished in one generation what it took
Ohio or Pennsylvania to accomplish in
